Recipe

Ingredients

1 cup raw cashew nuts
¾ cup boiling water
2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 small clove garlic
1 chipotle chilli in adobo sauce
½ tsp sea salt
½ tsp ground cumin

Method

Place all ingredients together in a high-speed blender. Process until smooth and creamy, approximately 1 min.
If you find it’s too thick, add more water. If it’s not quite thick enough, add more cashew nuts.
Tip: If you prefer a spice-free Queso, replace the chipotle chilli with a teaspoon of smoked paprika.
